    headlight and tailight out

    On the way home from work tonight I noticed my headlight and tailight were not working. The brakelight was fine and my signals worked too. I recently replaced the regulator and stator because of issues and on the 1st ride after that the headlight blew and I replaced it and no problems until today ( 1200kms since). Any thoughts? Love this site!
    Thanks,
    Trevor

      How's the fuse doing? Did you test it via a test light and not just look at it?

          Obviously, your bike is newer than '79, and has more than just one fuse, but please tell us ... WHAT BIKE ARE YOU ASKING ABOUT???

          There is one fuse that powers the lights, you will find it at the end of the fuse panel.

                  Loosing lights after having problems with charging system....
                  Do you have voltmeter, can you check the battery voltage with bike running?
                  Just to see that problem is not excessive high voltage that could be burning out the bulbs.
